THE BULLPEN

     We want a pitcher, not a belly-itcher! Happy Bucs & Pucks Day! Your Pittsburgh Pirates take their show on the road as they open a 3-game series tonight in the desert against the Arizona D-Bags. These are your keys to tonight's game. 1)The Pirates took the final 2 in their 4-game set with the Scrubs, winning yesterday 5-4. Tonight they go for 3 straight. If it's 3, it's for me! 2)These 2 teams don't like each other. Remember, we took out their best player, 1B Paul Goldschmidt last year. The following day they retaliated by plunking CF Andrew McCutchen. They no longer have jagoff manager Kirk Gibson so we'll see whether they want to play beanbrawl again. Hit 'em early, hit 'em often, hit 'em HARD, Hit, Run & Score! 3)The Pirates start RH Gerrit Cole, 2-0, 2.65 ERA. The D-Bags answer with RH Josh Collmenter, 1-2, 3.38 ERA. All aboard the Cole Train for another victory! Let's Go Bucs!!!!!
